Rangakarmee – A Tradition, A Culture, A Movement is a noted Indian theatre group, based in Kolkata.[1] The theatre group was founded in January, 1976 by Usha Ganguly.[2] They spearhead Hindi theatre in Kolkata,[3] they have also staged Bengali plays.[4] Rangakarmee, believes in Theatre with a Mission. Its primary aim is to create awareness about the rampant insensitivity and practice of injustice to which women and other weak sections of society often fall victim. To carry its message to the audience Rangakarmee, under the able guidance of Usha Ganguli, created a language of its own – a style of communication solely dependent on theatre, which can cross the barrier of languages spoken by different communities within India and abroad.

Presently Smt Tripty Mitra is the Creative Director , Hirakendu Ganguli is the President and Anirudh Sarkar is the Secretary.
